javascript thread: Inserting Word Document on Access Database


Message #1 by "Byron" <byronskribe@y...> on Thu, 28 Nov 2002 23:17:09
most people use the input type of FILE. There are plenty of online scripts 
in a variety of languages from ASP to Perl and PHP that will handle this 
kind of thing. Some do save the file into a database, but most simply place 
it in a directory and put the link to that directory and file name into the 
database to keep the database size down.
